    Hey,

    So, not really sure what i want to say here.. i guess i need some support.
    I'm coming out to my sister and her boyfriend next monday.
    I already told my dad and his wife, they reacted fine, they don't have a problem with it whatsoever.
    BUT, i'm reeaallyy afraid to come out to my sister. The thing is, she's not against gay people or anything, it's just that i think she'll have a problem with ME being gay.
    I think this because a few years ago i have been diagnosed with a personality disorder. Ever since then she has been (in my opinion) kind of obsessive about me. Like, in the concerned way, but not a happy concerned way.. If that makes any sense.
    Ever since the diagnosis she's been paying very close attention to everything i say, and if it maby possibly has something to do with the pd, she says i shouldn't think like that, or shouldn't act that way or whatever.
    So, why am i afraid to come out to her?
    It's because i think she'll think: 'Ow god, here we go again, she has another "problem". I bet it's just a phase and she just says it so get attention.'
    I'm probably overthinking this way to much, but talking this over with my dad he thinks she may react the way i think she will. *Anxiety increases.*
    But, i'm also tired of keeping the "secret". I don't want to keep getting questions about when i will finally get a boyfriend.

    Anyway, i hope she'll react in a good way.
    I really don't want to do it though...
